Non-GMO Chips: 10 Delicious, GMO-Free Snack Options

BY Nathan Phelps, November 28, 2018

So you’re throwing a dinner party or trying to pack a healthy lunch, but every major chip brand out there seems to be full of nasty preservatives and additives. MSG, GMOs, high fructose corn syrup — you name it. It stinks, and it's annoying wasting your time looking over the ingredients, right?

And even when you spend the time, sometimes it’s tough to know which brands are non-GMO chips and which ones are just "organic" without really backing it up.

Never fear.

We've matched up the most common snack foods with our favorite non-GMO project verified chip alternatives or healthy snacks for each!

If you do a bit of digging, there are healthy and delicious alternatives for every snack you love. That includes non-GMO potato chips and non-GMO corn chips, we promise.

So give these organic and non-GMO snacks a try instead, and provide healthy and delicious snacks for your next get together or lunch!

Swap Ruffles for Kettle Brand Potato Chips!

Kettle Brand launched their line of natural, non-GMO potato chips all the way back in 2012... and America hasn't been the same since. Their crunchy texture, health-conscious ingredients, and fun flavors have made them a staple in households across the US.

With varieties such as New York Cheddar, Buffalo Bleu and Maple Bacon, how could you not give these chips a try?

Swap generic butter popcorn for Quinn Snacks Microwave Popcorn!

Mmmm... Quinn Snacks Microwave Popcorn is so much better for you than regular microwave popcorn! You feel lighter and less greasy, but still get that delicious popcorn fix you need when settling down for a movie. They have a bunch of delicious flavors including sea salt and buttered as well.

Swap regular pretzels for Quinn's Classic Sea Salt Pretzels!

This is number two on the list of Quinn! They just make wonderful products, so keep an eye out for that name. And if you're a serial pretzel snacker, then you should really look into these sea salt pretzels. They are dangerously delicious.

Swap Ritz for Back to Nature's Classic Round Crackers

It's hard to beat having round club crackers and dips at a get together, but that doesn't mean you have to buy Ritz or other brands packed with GMOs. Try Back to Nature's Classic Round Crackers instead!

Swap Goldfish for Annie's Cheddar Bunnies

Wanting to relive your childhood or give your child a healthier option? Trade Goldfish for Annie’s delicious Cheddar Bunnies. It may take a bit of convincing to get your kid to eat bunnies instead of fish, but you should be able to win them over!

Bonus: Swap Slim Jim for Chomps!

CHOMPS (that’s us!) make our healthy, protein packed meat snacks with just a few of the best, natural ingredients — humane and sustainably sourced meats, and none of the bad stuff! They aren’t chips, but if you’re looking for non-GMO, healthy satiation and deliciousness, then they're for you!

10 delicious non-GMO chips or snack options for you to try out. You really can’t go wrong — just pick what sounds good to you and make it happen.
